With our wine license in hand and a deep stock of delicious bottles behind the bar, we’re ready for old ladies getting sloshed and starting bar fights. My list has stereotypical female pleasers like Prosecco and pink Champagne. Prime remains a steadfast dry red wine drinker, but she’s the furthest thing from being stereotypical. I mean, look at her choice of boyfriend.
Birthdays today include the true BLM guy; the guy who invented Wendy’s; the guy who invented the plate job; the original Indiana Jones; one of my very favorite kids’ book writers; a woman who couldn’t release a record because the center hole kept healing up; one of my homeboys from when liberals were actually against wars; my academic grandfather; a piece of shit who was… a piece of shit; and one of my top three fantasies as a kid who surprisingly was no dummy.
Links will dummy us up, though.
At some point, you run out of slogans.
Assuming the US Supreme Court doesn’t take this on, expect the big screaming to be about packing the court. He who controls the spice district lines controls the universe elections.
With so much attention paid to Team useless and trivial mind games, we mustn’t forget the important areas of policy where the Teams agree. And that is wiping their asses with the Bill of Rights.
The Left’s embrace of Jew-hate enshittifies everything.
I’m generally anti-capital punishment (not trusting the State to get it right), but cases like this…
Our new version of debtors’ prison. Having personally dealt with the State on these issues, I also don’t trust them to get this right, either.
There are musical musical performers who have clever and interesting patter. Sierra Ferrell is not one of them. So ignore the stupid vapid intro because what follows is some stellar singing. The Old Guy is not normally amused by goofy outfits, but this one is the exception.

I’d love to see the grounds of their appeal to SCotUS – never mind our state constitution, we demand unlimited and eternal power, NOW!
It’s the Supremacy Clause, JI.

Virginia’s AG is now fantasizing about elevating himself above the SCoVA.
If they don’t do what he wants he’ll start vocalizing his fantasies about killing them.
This isn’t new. State Depatment revoked/suspended my passport when I owed more than 10k in arrears during my troubles.

BTW, OMWC, I don’t know if you saw my posting this in the Stoic thread yesterday afternoon.
It’s (((that guy))) from yesterday’s thread!
So you clicked on my link, but apparently didn’t read my comment saying I posted it yesterday. :-p
Here I thought my ability to turn my tongue upside down in both directions to be special.
But can you do the “U” thing with it?
(Asking for a friend, of course…)
Yep, but the real talent is my niece who can do that clam shell thing with it. Stupid human tricks are fun
You trying to give the Old Man a tongue bath, Teds?
I’m sure a cunning linguist like OMWC knows the importance of a proper warm up routine before dispensing a vigorous tongue lashing.
That being said, I need all the help I can get, so I’m taking copious notes.
This, however, was not the full extent of controversy in Venter’s career. He would probably not have denied himself that he was driven by ambition and ego, and he could be rude, aggressive and opinionated.
Yeah, you never see that in the public sector or academia.
All the same, he seems now like an entrepreneur from a happier time, when billionaire tech leaders were keen to work alongside scientists to create productive knowledge
Like what Elon is doing for rocketry, right?
No. Elon manufactures hate.
“We’re stopping on the runway,” a pilot told the air traffic control tower, according to a recording posted by the ATC.com app. “We just hit somebody. We have an engine fire.” Later, a pilot told the tower that “an individual was walking across the runway.”

In either case I look forward to the massive amount of training I will have to redo because of this.
At least 4 times a year somebody feels compelled to step in front a train and delay me for hours.
I don’t understand the desire to off yourself and fuck over 1,000s of people.

He (I assume) probably had no family to speak of.
You would think it would be difficult not to see a plane on the runway, closing in on you.
It’s kind of like one of the first things we teach our kids when crossing a street.
Sucked to be that guy.
Props to the pilot and crew for getting the passengers off safely.
One time my dad gave his great aunt a flight in his 182. She asked him what the big fan on the front of the plane was for, “it keeps the pilot cool, if it stops he gets hot in a hurry.”
whoosh!
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.

I’d be really pissed.
We are taught young that when citizens mess up, it is your fault. When government messes up it is also, your fault.
The IRS has that weaponized. They don’t have to give you correct answers to questions, but you’re responsible if you make a mistake.
Hardaway said PennDOT told her the issue involved a driving examiner and possible fraud.

Not a real black person, nor a real woman, at least not running as a Republican.

Jesus Fucking Christ, that’s bad.
An act of political hygiene
Northern states run by Democrats can draw utterly predatory district maps, gerrymandered to the hilt as a means of oppressing their Republican voters, but Southern states run by Republicans haven’t been free to do likewise — because of the ancient sins of… Democrats. The effect being that Democrats have been able to insist on representation in states where the majority of the population is utterly offended by them.
Heads we win, tails you lose!

“A maniac repeat offender released from a psych ward after just an hour allegedly shoved an elderly man to his death down Manhattan subway steps in an unprovoked attack Thursday night — with an outraged poilce source blasting the killing as a “complete collapse” of City Hall’s approach to mental health.
Rhamell Burke — a 32-year-old serial troublemaker who has been arrested four times since February — mysteriously walked free from Bellevue Hospital about an hour after cops cuffed him and checked him in as an “emotionally disturbed person” around 3:30 p.m. Thursday, according to police.
The violent brute was released around 4:40 p.m. — and launched his fatal attack on 76-year-old stranger Ross Falzone, who worked as a teacher, at a Chelsea subway station about five hours later, while still sporting his hospital bracelet.”

Howdy, howdy. Time to go into the Pickup Dept. Last week, they were kinda too busy and I got sent to “Returns,” which was the best day of paid labor in my life. (I wonder if that’ll return?) Trying to get back into grocery picking, but I’m not worried, regardless.

“A “looksmaxxing” influencer was arrested for allegedly stashing loads of child porn on his phone Wednesday, while claiming to investigators he wanted to “try something new,” according to Florida authorities and reports.
Mason Hull’s then-girlfriend found the cache of stomach-turning images of teen girls — with some as young as 8 years old — while scrolling through his phone on April 30, according to an affidavit obtained by Fox 13 Tampa Bay.
The scorned lover dug through Hull’s Telegram messages while he was asleep because she believed the 18-year-old social media influencer was cheating on her, the affidavit said.”

“Sarah Ferguson was also found to have lied about the length of her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. From the spring of 2011 she had shunned him publicly but in private called him ‘a steadfast, generous and supreme friend to me and my family’.
Emails showed the truth of her relationship with the paedophile: they had been much closer than she had ever admitted; he had bankrolled her for 15 years; she and her daughters had been among the first people to see Epstein after his release from prison….
A former employee at P Diddy’s Bad Boy Records said the rapper was obsessed with the Royal Family, bragged about ‘slamming’ Sarah and once said ‘he could not wait until Fergie’s daughters come of age’.
This is confirmed by another associate of the singer who says Diddy, real name Sean Combs, first met Sarah Ferguson in New York in 2002 at a party thrown by Ghislaine Maxwell and that their ‘secret friends with benefits’ relationship began in 2004 and lasted for years.”

“Sydney Sweeney has shocked Euphoria viewers once again, but this time it’s not over her nude scenes.
The actress, 28, has earned praise for her acting skills after a preview of Sunday’s episode of the HBO Max show was released on Friday.
Although the scene features Sweeney’s signature cleavage on full display, it’s her ability to perform a monologue from William Shakespeare’s Antony and Cleopatra that has blown fans away.”

What is everyone doing this morning? i am finally getting a haircut after months, then installing a light and tightening some chair legs. After that, relaxation.
I’m generally procrastinating.
I mowed the lawn yesterday but didn’t weed eat it cause I’m too bruised from a fall last week.
Going to clean the battery posts on the worktruck and hope I found the power draw, I think my dash camera which I installed just two months ago is trying to connect to my phone all the time and pulling the batteries down. Then I’m headed to work this afternoon. Five hour drive for about ten hours of work. I hate jobs like that.
Watching a movie.
Grabbing stuff from the tailor, then replacing the batteries in a UPS, then hopping on the peloton at some point. That’s about it. Lazy Saturday.
A tailor.
That’s fancy.

“Instead of actually looking at themselves and going to therapy, these men are turning to platforms [and thinking] ‘No, I’m right … Those women are wrong.’”
– Checks out, I’ve been told for decades that women are infallible uber(wo)menschen.
“Across their practices, experts are also seeing men wanting relationships with more traditional gender roles[…]”They prefer someone at home, not putting their career first,” divorce attorney Ankit Kapoor told The Post.”
– Men wanting things in a partnership is White supremacy and totally different from women wanting men to have equal or higher education and income.

It is no longer a surprise to me that the most prominent graffito greeting travelers passing east through downtown on the State Highway upon which I live, right next to the giant letters reading “BLACK LIVES MATTER”, is another, fresher set of giant letters a little further along reading “FREE GAZA”. And yeah, I doubt the Gaza fans here have any closer knowledge of the place than they do about the few “black lives” to be found around here.
I wonder if the owners of the new apartments going up right there are going to keep it, in solidarity with the radical leftists that rule this miserable place.
“The darker thread to all this is that many Americans feel they can’t speak freely anymore. There are obvious parallels to the assassination of right-wing podcaster Charlie Kirk, a mouthpiece for smarmy bigotry if there ever was one. Kirk’s death was a shocking and inexcusable act of violence, in spite of the hate he advocated, but it was precisely his bile-spewing that prompted so many to shrug, express zero condolences or even celebrate his death, perhaps because they felt that at least it meant an end to his ceaseless disparagement of anyone not a straight white male.”

“Lest anyone assume this euphemistic tendency is only coming from the left, that’s mostly the case because MAGA thought-leaders, if you can call them that, are often more overt about calls for violence.”

“Let Memphis secede from the state of Tennessee,” state Rep. Antonio Parkinson (D) said, according to reporting from The Tennessean. “Let my people go. I’m deada‑‑ serious. If you’re constantly beating on us, let us out.”
Parkinson, who represents part of Shelby County, which includes Memphis, told the Memphis-based outlet WMC-TV that the redistricting was “no longer simply about maps.”
“This is about whether Memphis, a majority-Black economic engine for this state, is expected to continue contributing billions in tax revenue, culture, labor and commerce while being systematically stripped of political power,” he added.
